An Inexplicable Nap
Our quaint little tale begins in a city trapped within a thick, post-holiday humdrum ...
As the festive mood winds down people limp and scurry along to a faint beat ....
A pulse beneath the cars, trains, boats, and feet ..
Underneath towers that scrape the sky and roads that choke the earth lies the source .....
Ah but enough about all that mumbo jumbo let's get to the real plot of this. The true story told on the second by the second from the mouths of every camera hound that finds it first.
<b>Local woman found dead on the ice!</b>
<b>More to be told after quick coverage of an unusual theft downtown.</b>
At the center of a park towered by pinnacles of steel lies a women. Dressed as finely as the day she were possibly wed and still wearing her inherited pearls. Her face caught in a permanent scowl as her chilled lips hold clear flecks of blood. Permanently rested on a layer of ice she appears to be one of those new age sculptures that people try to pass off as real. Heck with her limbs twisted at such odd angles she could even be some doll you see on the shelves. If not for the boys in bright blue surrounding her and prodding her with this flashlight or that light brush. Forming an even more isolating layer is the sheer number of reporters, tv personalities, and unpaid interns trying to get dibs on coverage of the body.
Finally at the outskirts lie the curious passerby having been temporarily pulled away from their usual dull wanderings. They peer and pull with little success as the dead Jane Doe stays frozen in time.
With the scene set and a curious occurrence all that is left to ask is .... What role will you play?
Will you stick with the crowds of spectators, steal some camera time, or pester the officers?
Or maybe other roles await you.
